I recently had the pleasure of staying at this property, and I can't recommend it highly enough! The location is simply excellent, situated conveniently next to the MRT station and bus terminal, making it incredibly easy to explore the city. With shops, grocery stores and restaurants just a short walk away, everything you need is right at your fingertips. The hostel itself is comfortable, providing a welcoming atmosphere that made my stay enjoyable. Ana, who is always ready to assist with any questions when you get to the property, is very friendly and accommodating. I especially appreciated the cozy common area at the rooftop, which was perfect for meeting fellow travelers. Thank you, Birdnest Guesthouse owner and Ana, for a fantastic stay! I look forward to returning on my next visit.

Like the vibes of the place, stayed here before. Staff and owner Echart (?) was friendly and checked in on us and our stay. Peaceful place where you'll definitely get sleep! Close to good hotspots and just opposite train exit, convenience store 7-11 below. Very chill place, nice arty concept too! And feels safe and secure.

Bed frame creaked (took double decker) but wasn't too bad, pillow was flat but we managed tho I'm sure if we asked for pillows, we would've offered a solution from the easy going caretaker. Water draining at the shower could improve but wasn't a big issue finally.

I personally love this place, but my wife - NO I'm a backpacker forever and the room was comfortable enough (as long as you get a window double) with air con and a fan. The owner is a nice bloke (as was the last one) but true, the rooms a bit tired and the bathroom plumbing pretty ratshit. The main attraction in this place is the fantastic location and the open rooftop where you can chill at anytime and always plenty room. A short walk from local train station (used to get airport bus to Chinatown, but not any more). Markets very close, but now the "Robbers Market" in same street outside entrance.(Second hand market early mornings till about 10.30am)

Really need to fix the plumbing. No on-site "ownership" ....the happy fellow backpacker with all the local info. The area changed (like the rest of the world after COVID) and the cheap 8 Ringets meals are now 28 Ringets. The Sheraton is 400m away and a huge accommodation tower now in Chinatown..... Which I guess explains prices hike.

-It was self checkin. -Owner would contact you on whatsapp/Booking.com app with all the details and places you can visit -Best thing is location. Opposite to MRT Paser Seni(which is kind of junction from where you can go to almost all known places, which is cheaper option than car. Near to bus station walking distance to petling street and restaurants And 7/11 store(where you can get anything even packaged food 24/7) -If you arrive early, you can wait at the roof top cafe

The shower wasn't working. We booked two rooms(one by another family member), there AC wasn't working properly and shower head was broken.

Cozy calm place, I really liked the bird theme. Rooftop is a chill place where you can get free tea and coffee. The location is so great that it's right next to the subway. The bed and bathroom were clean. The owner helped us with the check-in. You can self-check which is a great feature (sadly I had no internet and couldn't get the message from the owner). Overall if you are looking for a place to just sleep this is the best cost efficient hotel in KL.

Nothing much, mostly the cost justifies the negatives (such as small rooms, thin walls that you can hear everything).

The location is great, so easy to reach from the airport - just one change and if you pick the exit A from MRT you will see the hotel on the opposite side of the street. Google gives you a slightly wrong idea of the entrance location, it is on the right side of the building if looking from the exit A MRT. There is a tiny street which google doesn't know. Room is sort of small but has a high ceiling. Small bathroom with shower. There is AC. The rooftop is nice, you can also get a free water (refill) from there. Communication with the owner via WhatsApp, I only saw him when I left the hotel. Many restaurants, cafes and shops are nearby.

Lighting could be better. If you have heavy luggage the stairs are quite long so be prepared. Street noises come trough window so earplugs are nice (hotel provides some for you)

The staff was really kind and caring. Kept their promise in a timely manner. My stay was comfortable and I felt safe to stay. Absolutely good value for money for budget travellers (facility is not fancy)

The rooftop is very dusty as it's right in the centre of the Pasar Seni area. The chair cushions are so dusty I never sat around in the rooftop. I wished it was cleaner.

The location was perfect, so close to everything. The MRT station is literally across the road, China town was about 150m away. The roof top cafe seating area is a really nice place, sadly not very many of the guests used it whilst I was there, but I can imagine it's a great place to meet other travellers. There is free tea, coffee and water, plus a help yourself fridge stocked with cold beer, you just put the money in the pot in the fridge. The owner is very accommodating and is always somewhere around the property.

I had a room that was facing the road, which was a very busy one at night, but the owner does supply earplugs.
